MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product contains three MRT-tested substances: Chili Pepper (banana peppers), Sodium Metabisulfite, and FD&C Yellow #5. Additionally, vinegar is present as a potential hidden source of corn or apple, which are also on the MRT panel. Due to the presence of multiple chemical and food triggers, this product is categorized as high risk and should only be consumed under the guidance of a practitioner during maintenance phases.

Understanding These Triggers

🌶️
Chili Pepper

Chili pepper (Capsicum) is tested on the MRT panel. It appears in hot sauces, spice blends, seasoned meats, and many Mexican, Asian, and Indian-cuisine-inspired processed foods.

🟡
FD&C Yellow #5

Tartrazine (Yellow #5) is an azo dye on the MRT chemical panel. Found in processed foods, beverages, and medications. Cross-reactivity with aspirin sensitivity has been documented in clinical literature.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 3 identified triggers, this product has a high concentration of MRT-tested substances. The probability that at least one of these triggers is reactive on your personal panel is statistically significant.

This product is not recommended during Phase 1 (Elimination) or Phase 2 (Reintroduction). It may only be considered during Phase 3 (Maintenance) after your Certified LEAP Therapist has confirmed that all 3 substances scored Green on your individual MRT results.

Products with 3 or more MRT panel triggers require individualized evaluation. Do not attempt to self-assess — your CLT has the clinical training to weigh multiple reactive substances and potential cross-reactivity.
